All cycles must be analysed critically to ensure that ore, and indeed waste, is being moved in the most cost effective way. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;"&gt;By streamlining the drill and blast cycle, there can be major advantages further down line in the crushing and milling cycles. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;"&gt;However, the load and haul component will also benefit from competent drilling and blasting by achieving better dig ability which in turn puts less strain on the loading machine.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;"&gt;Another major advantage from good blasting can be greatly increased lives on both ground engaging tools and tyres. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;"&gt;Robertson Mining is prepared to meet the needs of the vital, demanding and constantly changing mining industry both domestically and internationally while continuing to satisfy our clients' needs in a proactive, professional, and ethical manner&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/132276344381769545-7690615790402464604?l=robertson-consulting.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://robertson-consulting.blogspot.com/feeds/7690615790402464604/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=132276344381769545&amp;postID=7690615790402464604&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/132276344381769545/posts/default/7690615790402464604'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/132276344381769545/posts/default/7690615790402464604'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://robertson-consulting.blogspot.com/2007/02/robertson-mining-consultants.html' title='Robertson Mining Consultants'/><author><name>Robertson Consulting</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_p375hD1-cgs/Rd2FRGfIekI/AAAAAAAAAAM/fMCOaY7FZJg/s72-c/2006_0327blast30023ss.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry></feed>
